It will be and should be Acuna, but Buehler's postseason performances unquestionably stamped him as one of the elite young RHP in MLB. If he stays healthy, he's going to be a star.

Re: Buehler, Acuna & Soto are finalist for NL Rookie of Year Award
Agree it should be Acuna. Had Buehler not gotten hit by the line drive earlier in the year, he might have had 12-14 wins and been right up there. I wouldn't worry about him, without some bad injury, he will be a very wealthy young man in a few years.
